Customers in the UK are paying too much for broadband services, according to a new report by uSwitch.

It claims that the 10 million or so broadband customers in the UK are wasting a total of £621m a year but not choosing a better deal when their fixed length contracts end.

It also found that Mr Average Internet User spends 33 days per year online with 88 percent of the 14,969 respondents buying items over the internet on a regular basis.

What uSwitch have failed to see is that a cheap broadband connection isn't necessarily the best value for money, with lot's of other factors also involved with choosing an ISP such as support, email and static IP issues.
